How we help

Whatever the case, the approach is the same: Bain combines the best of our private-sector expertise with a deep understanding of the social sector to create a customized offering for our clients. Whether it’s to help private-sector clients reduce their carbon footprints or to aid the Indian government in setting up a nursing school to combat HIV/AIDS, the Bain toolkit delivers.

We help clients with business plan development and fundraising, with growth strategy and performance improvement and reorganization. We serve as incubators and brainstorming partners for fledgling organizations eager to make a difference, like Fundação Amazonas Sustentável, which is working to prevent deforestation in Brazil. We help our clients develop strong fundraising platforms and maintain donor loyalty, as we did for One Foundation in China and City Year in Boston. We help clients like World Childhood Foundation in Sweden focus on their core and promote sustainable growth. And when our clients encounter roadblocks, we help them improve their decision effectiveness, refine their operating models and revitalize morale as we did for the University of California at Berkeley. The pages in this section will detail these examples and more.

If the issue is in the headlines, chances are that a Bain team somewhere is working on the problem. But we also find plenty of social- and public-sector clients who are laboring out of the spotlight to change things on the ground. It doesn’t matter; the point for us isn't publicity, it's to help every client maximize its impact and deliver lasting results.
